Talking About School Lockdown Drills with Children.jpg

Emily Romrell

Author, Mom, and School Safety Advocate

Hi, I'm Emily. I'm a mom to young kids - and I know how heavy it feels when the world changes faster than we can explain it to them. 

When my oldest was starting kindergarten, I knew she'd need me as she experienced lockdown drills. I searched everywhere for a book to help but nothing felt right.

 

So I wrote the one I knew we needed.

You can read more about the book here.

"Listen, Run, Hide is well written with a twist of humor while addressing a serious subject. It gives teachers and parents a safe and non-threatening way to bring up a difficult subject."

You want to walk your child through lockdown drills.

But you aren't sure what to say - or what not to say - to keep them safe. Plus you don't want to terrify them. 

This book will help

School Safety Advocacy that Matters

Along the way of writing my book, I learned about a vital tool that is preventing school shootings around the US - Anonymous Reporting Systems. 

 

Realizing that my kids’ schools didn’t have one, I approached administration to convince them of our needs and the solution. Within months we had one up and running!

Now I want to help you get your school this same resource. Watch for my guide launching soon and binge my social media content to learn more in the meantime.
